Bloody egg-not lash egg

[FrizzledWyandotte7]

I was at a meeting and a bird (welsummer, middle aged, hen) suddenly laid an egg. It was red and rubbery-first we thought it was a lash egg, but it looks different. Please help-not my bird, but other birds and little kids were nearby and if it is something they can get it’s important.

Whatever it is, I haven’t been able to find anything about it online.

I have never seen anything like this, but it may have come from her ovaduct. It looks like yolk follicles in it. When you say she suddenly laid an egg, had she not been laying until this?

Maybe @Eggcessive or @Wyorp Rock will know what this is.

I agree that it may be an expelled egg follicle. It may be a one time issue, or be a more chronic reproductive problem. Wyorp Rock recently posted about this, but I was nit able to find her recent posts.
